Valentine Vuong is a transfemme they/them enby, I am not accepting criticism at this time 😇
#wednesday spoilers#deadpool spoilers#not impressed with Val's character design in this issue suddenly having MASSIVE BAZONGAS#combined with Tasky misgendering them (without acknowledgement or correction)#it really feels like the narrative intent was to make SURE we know they're AFAB#so it was clear that the Valenpool closure convo was between Wade and A GIRL#hey marvel writers. I see your “Deadpool has to be with a girl” and raise you ”that girl has a dick and Wade LOVES it“#ugh. idk. the whole thing is leaving a bad taste in my mouth#Val's previous character designs did suggest afab but not strongly#their agab wasn't confirmed either way and I really liked that#because like? it's not our business? what's in their pants or down their shirt?#(obligatory disclaimer that of course enbies and transmascs can have a majestic rack and still be 100% their gender)#(I know a lot of pre-op and non-op trans men!)#(but in this specific context that doesn't feel like what they were trying to convey)#(in an ideal world there would be be more than one enby character in the entire fucking universe 😭)#(so the burden of “good representation” wouldn't be all on Val's shoulders)#(but here we are. and so the small choices they make about the character have a HUGE impact)#I guess the curse of being a comics fan is hating the portrayal of your fave 90% of the time#still it's disappointing#ANYWAY Val makes their own E#and they bought those [redacted] with merc money and they were worth every penny#valentine vuong#deadpool (2024)#valenpool#deadpool#wade wilson#gender blender#water logs
